OP here

Definitely crossed my mind! Especially the slot system!

Rewinding could be fun as well. I could use our Sonos speakers to play the VHS rewinding sound, lol

> slot system

I have a similar setup but I've been using chip cards and a card reader. I find it much more intuitive than just placing an NFC card over a reader. The card reader blinks when a card is inserted, changes colour, it's all very obvious and physical, with immediate feedback.

In my case I only use it with music though (I deem them still too small to choose movies themselves).

I've been using reclaimed chip cards (various bank cards mostly) which all have an easy to read kind of ID, but I haven't been able to find a way to write things to blank cards as easy as one can do with NFC cards though.

Kids are gonna go to college still believing you have to rewind discs.

Do it. That's a long game prank.

  • My mum got mad at me once, when I was younger, because I wouldn't rewind the DVD before I returned it to the rental shop. My dad had to confirm before she believed me; thought I was just being lazy.
